What's it like to work on a great software development team facing an
impossible problem? How do you build an effective team? Can a group of
people who don't get along still build good software? How does a team
leader keep everyone on track when the stakes are high and the schedule
is tight?
Beautiful Teams takes you behind the scenes with some of the most
interesting teams in software engineering history. You'll learn from
veteran team leaders' successes and failures, told through a series of
engaging personal stories -- and interviews -- by leading programmers,
architects, project managers, and thought leaders.
